Summary
In the years after the death of Aerith Gainsborough, Shinra Electric Power company has taken their thirst for power beyond the fabric of one world. With new technology to rip into alternate dimensions, Cloud and his crew are in a race to beat Shinra to every universe to protect them from bleeding every world dry of their mako and enslaving the surviving versions of Aerith to locate the source.
But Cloud has his own agenda. One the planets seem to protest against.
Keep the woman he loves alive, and tear through every world until he can finally save her.
Six worlds.
Eight hundred and seventy eight days.
Solar flares. Sunsets. Endless horizons.
I’ve seen geomagnetic storms illuminate the endless sky in ultraviolet and golden waves and watched stars explode, knowing it happened long before the light traveled its way to the Chrysalis, and it was only an echo of the past moving through space and time.
Still, despite the great many wonders journeying through the skies and breaking through the inter-dimensional barriers to alternate worlds, nothing has ever surpassed the beauty of a pale pink ribbon tied into ash brown hair.

Summary
Ruby Liu is a hardcore FF7 fan who also freelances as a programmer. After one fateful night, she is forced to enter the world of her beloved game and finds a new world both familiar yet unfamiliar. Apparently her old fanfics have become Gaia's cancer, brought about by the wrath of an old resident Summon thought lost to time. And to top it all off, she's drawn the ire and intrigue of Sephiroth, who seeks new purpose for the realm lovingly dubbed the Debug Room and even bullies her as a de facto editor in this new story of Gaia.
But the Rulers of the Outer Realms are always watching. Order must be preserved, lest the ancient wars of cataclysm resurge.
(Rewrite of FF7 Original & Remake where game mechanics, sidequest lore, easter eggs, OG concept drafts, and even the game's code may be integrated into the plot. No major spoilers for FF7 Rebirth, only scattered references. The Ultimania Guide for this fic will come after this WIP is complete. Enjoy the cool logo art for now.)

"It was for the people she's lost. For the ones she still misses. For the ones she's scared to lose. And maybe... A little for someone she shouldn't miss at all."

What do you do when the heart insists on what the world says you can’t have? Between duty, desire, and dreams unspoken, Cloud and Aerith orbit each other as fate tilts toward ruin.
